Looking to reduce your energy bills and lower your environmental impact? Our 4kW solar system is designed to power your home efficiently, meeting the energy needs of a typical household.
By harnessing solar energy, you’ll enjoy the benefits of clean, renewable power while gaining energy independence.
Key Features and Benefits of a 4KW Solar System
Power Generation
The 4kW solar system can generate approximately 3,400 to 4,000 kWh of electricity annually, depending on location and roof conditions.
This is enough to cover a significant portion of your home’s energy needs, resulting in substantial energy savings over time.
Environmental Impact of Renewable Energy
Switching to solar energy helps reduce your carbon footprint, contributing to the fight against climate change.
By using renewable energy, you’ll be doing your part to support global renewable energy goals and create a sustainable future.
Financial Benefits
Installing a 4kW system can result in significant energy bill reductions, allowing you to save money every month.
Additionally, you may qualify for government incentives and tax credits, further reducing the upfront cost and improving your return on investment.
Under the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) program, energy suppliers are obligated to provide export tariffs for customers, offering financial benefits for exporting surplus energy to the grid.
Reliability and Durability
Our 4kW system includes high-quality solar panels and components that are built to last. The panels come with a 25-year warranty, while the inverter has a 10-year warranty, ensuring reliable performance for many years to come.
Scalability
Planning to expand in the future? Our system is scalable, giving you the flexibility to add more panels as your energy needs grow.
Understanding Solar Panels
Solar panels are the heart of any solar panel system, transforming sunlight into renewable energy.
These panels are composed of photovoltaic (PV) cells, which are made from semiconducting materials like silicon.
When sunlight strikes a PV cell, it excites the electrons, causing them to move and generate an electrical current.
This current is then collected and directed through an inverter, which converts the direct current (DC) power into alternating current (AC) power that can be used in your home.
By harnessing the power of the sun, solar panels provide a sustainable energy solution that reduces reliance on grid energy and lowers electricity bills.
Solar Panel System Components
Solar Panels
We use monocrystalline solar panels, known for their high efficiency of up to 25%. These premium panels maximise power output while taking up less roof space.
Each panel is backed by a 25-year warranty, guaranteeing long-term performance and durability.
Inverter
The system is equipped with a high-efficiency inverter designed to convert solar energy into usable electricity with minimal loss.
It offers a power rating that perfectly complements the 4kW system and includes a 10-year warranty for reliable operation.
Mounting System
Our durable mounting system is compatible with most roof types and built to withstand various weather conditions.
This ensures your panels remain securely attached and optimally positioned for maximum sun exposure.
Other Components
You have the option to include a solar battery for energy storage, enhancing energy usage by allowing homeowners to store solar energy for later use, especially during nighttime.
Our integrated monitoring system provides real-time data on energy production and usage, helping you track your system’s performance.
Determining the Right Number of Panels
Figuring out how many solar panels you need for your solar panel system involves several key factors.
These include the amount of energy you aim to produce, the size of your roof, and the amount of sunlight your location receives.
Typically, a residential solar panel system requires between 15 and 30 panels.
For a 4kW solar panel system, you would generally need around 10-12 panels, each with a capacity of approximately 300-400 watts.
This setup ensures that you generate enough energy to meet a significant portion of your household’s energy consumption, helping you achieve substantial savings on your electricity bills.
What is the Cost of a 4kw Solar System?
A 4kw solar system usually costs between £7,800 and £10,200, we offer clear and competitive pricing to help you understand your investment.
What is the Cost of a 4kw Solar System with Battery Storage?
A 4kw system with battery storage would cost around £9,500 and £11,800. A 4kW system with battery storage is a popular choice for medium-sized households, as it allows for efficient energy use throughout the day and night, helping to reduce reliance on the grid and lower electricity bills over time.
Financing Options
We provide flexible financing plans, allowing you to spread the cost of your system over time.
You may also benefit from government incentives and tax credits, which can significantly reduce your upfront costs.
Return on Investment
With the potential for substantial energy savings, most homeowners see a payback period of 5 to 7 years.
From there, you can enjoy long-term savings on your energy bills for decades to come.
Additionally, homeowners can sell surplus energy generated from their solar panels back to the grid through the Smart Export Guarantee scheme, allowing them to recoup some of the costs associated with installing solar systems.
